I don't think you have any genuine reason.

If water is present everywhere in the air then what was the need to discover it.
This makes no sense what so ever.

Yeah. Does that scare you? This is one of the reasons why life has so much purpose, you only get one.

A type of sense you cannot provide.

By reason I mean.. The one and only reason which God find as a genuine reason due to which he should reveal himself in front of somebody, that is... Longing for Moksha.
If you have any other reason, than I can prove that it isn't genuine reason.

It's not the dying.
Not scared at all.
I've had a nde.
The greater likelihood is.....we are not top of the line life form.
Spiritual life is VERY likely.
What?.....7billion copies of a learning device.....and each one will fail?
No survivors of the last breath?
No purpose for all of this chemistry?
We are here to learn all that we can before we die.
THAT is the purpose of this life.
Whatever we learn....we become that item in the last hour.
So....dust are you?

Nay....I shall continue.
I just proved why your reason was no genuine.

Not sure about the term.....Moksha.
But I am sure that listening to your own echo is not a conversation.
When you are the First to say.....'I AM!'.....there is only the echo.
That might sound as affirmation at first.
But it would be better to hear it from someone else.....'yes, you ARE!'

It is simple. Are there times when you think whether God/Gods/Goddesses exist? Or whether there is a time when you cannot decide about the further course of action? These questions may agitate one's mind and bring vexation (to quote Buddha), and even Krishna in BhagawadGita when he said "Those who are on this path are resolute in purpose, and their aim is one. O beloved child of the Kurus, the intelligence of those who are irresolute is many-branched." BG 2.41I didn't understood what you mean by saying this, Do you care to rephrase it ?
I do not have these questions agitating my mind and my mind is at peace. Gods I deny, and as for the course of action I look for my 'dharma'. This is deliverance, enlightenment, nirvana, moksha (since I do not accept existence of soul, the question of getting out of the cycle of birth and death does not arise for me).

Joe, that is not the end of the story. Actually we do not turn into dust. The water vapor from the dead body is absorbed by the soil, it becomes part of the vegetation that grows over the grave. Flesh goes and becomes part of the maggots. Bones disintegrate and form part of the soil. Nothing dies, nothing is wasted, it all regenerates into living and non-living things, to quote Hindus and Buddhists, takes up new forms.
